Brent Kite and his manager are hoping to finalise at least a 2 year deal, i assume with Manly. I think with the $$$ he commands, letting him go would be in the clubs best interests with these youngsters comming through. Thoughts?

I wouldnt mind seeing another year or two from him which would be enough to start seeing the young guys really come through. In his last year he would start seeing less and less first grade I imagine as the young kids push on.

Then at the end of that deal a lot of the young forwards will be up for their new contracts especially the likes of Harrison. We can then offer them a first grade spot to sweeten the deal in re-signing them

Don't discount the respect he has around the club and the positive influence he has on the kids around the place as well, he is an asset to the club, and at the right price we would be mad not to keep him around
